‘Entertaining and informative. Its perfectly intelligent
advice is in dire need of being put into practice. Get your
daughters to read this, but only after your partners and sons have
finished it’
*Jo Brand*
'I inhaled this. It is INCREDIBLE. Absolute perfection'
*Joeli Brearley, founder of Pregnant Then Screwed*
'An astute and persuasive page-turner, a clear-sighted, compelling
examination of injustice'
*Observer*
‘An urgent and important book. I read it with rage and anger at the
injustices and inequalities, at how women are shamed and how they
internalise this shame, and how they are held responsible for
creating change rather than holding the systems and societal
structures accountable for their oppression. But in the end, I read
this with great optimism and hope. Because if we need to change
this world, for us, and for our daughters, we have to fix the
system. And this book is a blistering manifesto for this
change'
*Dr Pragya Agarwal*
‘Powerful . . . a summary of the injustices women face — and the
way that these interact with other forms of prejudice’
*Sunday Times*
'I am in awe of Laura Bates and her ability to perfectly balance
facts and her personal experiences, opinions and emotions. Her
writing is nothing short of perfect'
*Sofie Hagen, author of Happy Fat*
‘Timely. Buy it for the men in your life’
*Press Association*
'An almighty roar of a book'
*Terri White, author of Coming Undone*
I challenge any man to read this book and still deny there’s a
problem
*New Statesman*
